He was actively involved in squash and polo, until he discovered doughnuts and brownies. He added how it was a combination of will power and a high-protein, no oil, no sugar diet. Adnan was not always obese as a school kid. To actually squeeze out that amount of fat is not a feat possible for liposuction. Adnan broke down into tears and promised to lose all the weight.In one of his interviews Adnan said, liposuction is for people who are chubby, not for somebody who weighs 220 kg. Adnan's father, who had been battling pancreatic cancer (and ultimately succumbed to it in the year 2009), told him that he didn't wish to bury his son while he is still alive. His family and friends were a tremendous support to him in the phase. In fact it took a heart-felt message from his father to get Adnan all geared for the trail. The fighter flew to Houston and hired a nutritionist and got started on weight loss journey.
And that's when Adnan resolved to shed all the weight and live. It was at this point that his doctors told him that he would live only six more months unless he did something about his excess weight. Since he was overweight, the fat underneath his muscle pushed against his lungs and made breathing difficult. The surgery required him to be on bed rest for three months. He, however, did undergo the surgery for lymphedema in the year 2005, which also became the turning point in his journey. Many said he had undergone a liposuction surgery, but Adnan denied those reports.

I was very unapologetic about my size, because I felt that I had as much right to love someone as anybody else." It's just that on screen not many had attempted it with the kind of size that I had. At 220 kilos, he was far from being the perfect size as perceived on screen. In his interview to Faridoon Shahriyar of Bollywood Hungama, Adnan said recalling the fat-shaming, “If you are obese, it doesn't mean that you don't have a heart. While people hummed his tunes, questions were constantly asked about his weight. He also composed many music singles and appeared in some of them as the lead.
In his career spanning two decades, he has churned many chartbusters back to back as both, a composer and a singer - Tera Chehra, Udi Udi, Ishq Hota Nahi Sabhi ke Liye - but the public's fixation with his weight remained. His last major bollywood project as a composer was Bajrani Bhaijaan, that released in 2015. Adnan Sami would be debuting as an actor with 'Afghan: In Search of A Home'.
Along with the catchy lyrics and peppy beats, what also caught the public's attention was this new singer on the block, who was trying to make his way into the film industry with his melodies. Remember the song Mujhko Bhi Tu Lift Kara De from the year 2000? The song created a massive stir and was on everybody's lips for quite some time.
